I have 2 z/OS LPARs and 1 SuSe Linux LPAR. I have 2 OSA/e shared between all three of these LPARs. If I shutdown both OSA interfaces on the Linux LPAR using ifconfig ethX down, then the VIPA becomes unresponsive on the z/OS LPAR. If I start the OSA interfaces backup using ifconfig ethX up the VIPA

I sent a note to the SUSE webmaster about this and it turns out the US site note quite up to date (but will be very soon). Go to http://www.suse.de/en for the 9.1 press release. Sorry, I wasn't clear enough. I was referring to the roadmap which I can't find on the site (neither of them as it

Back in the old dayslast weekG... If I remember correctly, with a 1K block, you can utilize 53% of the track. the rest is interblock gaps. With 4K blocks, you can utilize 95% of the track. Of course if the data you have fits in under 1K, then 1K blocks will give you the most bang for the
